A big hi and hello to all of you out there! Thank you for stopping by Jenny Sun Photography's blog! This is my brand new blog space! So please make yourself at home, and have a good browse around. There is plenty more to come so check back often :) Just in case any of you are wondering who on earth I am, my name is Jenny Sun. I own a photography company that spans across Australia and Malaysia, particularly in the Sydney and Kuala Lumpur regions respectively. Though I'm not restricted to those areas! :) I love photographing just about anything under the sun, but my particular passion is for weddings and portraits - I seriously LOVE people, their stories, the beautiful relationships formed, and the tales that are told when that shutter goes off!

This blog is my personal and visual journey along this path of photography. Please hop on board the ride, comment along the way (I shamelessly love comments!), and lets see where the wind takes us :)

We did it :) It's done. Finished. Wrapped up. The first Signature Photographers Event has been rolled out with a stamp of approval.

The months of hard work, the hundreds of emails circulated, and all the organization has paid off for what was deemed as a very successful event on many levels.

Thank you to everyone who came, and generously gave us your time to let us talk - we truly appreciated you for that!! I mean that from the botton of my heart :D Thank you to all the organizers and planners! And definitely not forgetting to thank the 6 guys I worked with last week (Jim, Patrick, Louis, Zung, Jason, and Edmund) - they all gave great talks, and we all agreed in the end that all of us learned from each other...were encouraged by each other...and are inspired by each other - which was a very awesome thing. Thanks guys for all the words of encouragement! You rock!

On a personal note, I have to admit, I hadn't been this nervous in quite sometime! I don't know what it was because those that know me personally will know that I've done my fair share of teaching, presenting, debating.... but this was a whole new ball game entirely! That being said, I'm sharing this so I can bookmark and file it away for next time... so that in the future, I can look back and say - yes, I've learnt from this. I have grown. And I am so glad because of it. Because the most important lesson I learnt while my nerves wrapped its stubborn little fingers around my usual talkative and energetic persona yesterday on stage, was that I walked away reminded and even more determined the next time to just BE myself. To just keep in REAL. And most importantly - to just let me, be ME..... That is, to just speak straight from the heart.

You'll be hearing more of me next time. Promise :)

Regardless, I had fun :) The day turned out so well!! And I do mean that in every way! Thanks for all the support and encouragement again everyone. It meant alot, really. It seriously was a fantastic day and a great event filled with laughter, surprises, inspiration, and wisdom, and I so super stoked and excited for the next one coming!! :D We'll be back, just you wait!!
